Tapout

The TapouT crew picks up Page from his home gym in Albuquerque, New Mexico where he trains with Greg Jackson. They drive with him to Iowa, where they meet his opponent, Rod Montoya, who trains with Pat Miletich. Page and Montoya face off at Extreme Challenge. Damacio dominates the fight, knocking out Montoya in the first round.

Banuelos, roommate and training partner of Chuck Liddell, is training for WEC 26. He's facing Charlie Valencia to determine the number-one contender for the WEC Bantamweight title. Valencia catches Banuelos with an uppercut three minutes into the first round, knocking him out.

The crew meets Major at his home gym, American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, California, where he's living in an office above the gym. They drive with him to Decatur, Illinois for Courage Fighting Championship 8 for his professional MMA debut. After Major works to cut weight, his opponent Adrian Hopson weighs in 11 pounds over and shows up to the fight 13 pounds over. After struggling in round 1, Major comes back in the final two rounds and wins a unanimous decision.

TapouT scouts several talented fighters on a cross-country trip. They decide on Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone, who has an undefeated record. They stop in at Matt Hughes’ farm before heading out to the Ring of Fire, a mixed martial arts event in Colorado. Cowboy wins his match in the first round by submission with a triangle choke.

The TapouT crew travels to Hawaii to sign up B. J. Penn's Brazilian Jiu-jitsu trainer, Renato "Charuto" Verissimo. After a tour of the island, the boys return to California to attend to some business, then travel back to Hawaii to support Charuto in his ICON Sport-Epic fight against Lars Havens. After an initial flurry by Havens, Charuto takes him to the mat and ends the fight with his ground and pound.

Mask, Punkass and SkySkrape travel to Kenosha, Wisconsin to scout Sergio before his fight with Marcus Hicks at WEC 27 in Las Vegas. In the week leading up to the fight, the crew works to coordinate Las Vegas publicity activities. On fight night, Sergio closes Hicks' right eye with strikes in round one and has Hicks on his back for much of round two before getting caught in a sudden guillotine choke and being forced to tap out.

The crew meets fighter and coach Jeff Curran in Crystal Lake, Illinois, who introduces them to Matt "Sunshine" Fiordirosa. After watching Matt train and coach some young kids in wrestling, the crew overcomes RV trouble and rain delays to get to New Jersey for his bout with Khristian Geraci. Geraci catches Matt with a big shot to the face in round one but Matt rallies in round two to take Geraci to the ground and force a referee stoppage.

The TapouT crew return to Kenosha and meet Sherron "Rob Roy" Leggett, who's angling to become "TapouT's first superhero." They travel to Davenport, Iowa for his fight at Extreme Challenge 79 against Chris McDaniel. Sherron's coach and cornerman can't make the fight so Punkass and Spencer Fisher step in. Leggett submits McDaniel in the first round after catching him in a kimura lock.

The crew meets Scott "Einstein" Epstein in Los Angeles through his coach, Eddie Bravo. They agree to sponsor him and immediately put him in a photo shoot for some new TapouT gear. Epstein is set to face Sergio Quinones at Xcess Fighting's inaugural Havoc in Hollywood event and on fight day the crew is worried that Epstein is too casual. Quinones gets the better of Epstein through much of the first two rounds but Epstein is able to use his jiu jitsu skills to choke him out in round two.

The crew revisits past fighters and previews the upcoming season.
